As therefore the Fire is to the Aire, so Aire is to the Water, and Water to the Earth; and again, as the Earth is to the Water, so is the Water to the Aire, and the Aire to the Fire. And this is the root and foundation of all bodies, natures, vertues, and wonderfull works; and he which shall know these qualities of the Elements, and their mixtions, shall easily bring to pass such things that are wonderfull, and astonishing, and shall be perfect in Magick.
Three books of Occult Philosophy; Book 1, Ch 3; Of the Four Elements. (via madrantings)
I swear if you haven’t read The Three Books, you need to stop what you are doing and go read them now.
